This Is a Song For Miss Hedy Lamar

by Jeff Beck and Johnny Depp




This is a song for Miss Hedy Lamar
Erased by the same world that made her a star
Spun out of beauty, trapped by its web
She’s a perfect cocoon, entwined in gold thread
Her beauty a spectacle, thoughts too pure 
A light of her being her exotic allure
Was torn at the seems for daring to dream
It’s so hard to speak when you’re frozen in scream

Yes it’s all what it seems
Feels like a dream
But it’s life, and it’s death
She could count and she ended like baby’s breath

I don’t believe
I don’t believe
I don’t believe in humans anymore
I don’t believe
I can’t believe
I won’t believe in humans anymore

it’s so hard to talk when no one will hear
and everyone stares as you quiver in fear
shameful, shameless, painful, painless
this songs for you, Miss Hedy Lamar
How bright your light those lost white nights
so long ago, so far away
feels like a dream or a cosmic fiasco

I don’t believe
I don’t believe
I don’t believe in humans anymore
I don’t believe
I can’t believe 
I won’t believe in humans anymore
Not anymore

Stripped of belief, a thief is a thief
Who’s gonna stand up to give you relief
Of all that’s possessed, it’s so hard to digest
You’ve no right to sit down if you’re nobody’s guest
